Women's Networking Group

The Women's Networking Group is a friendly, informal group of women who meet regularly to socialize, promote their businesses or non-profits, seek employment, collaborate, ask questions and trade leads. The group is a mix of core members and newcomers, a combination which fosters intimacy while still staying fresh. Our members represent a wide range of professions, from voice coaches and jewelry designers to real estate brokers and medical professionals.

WNG is also a great opportunity to build business partnerships. The group has given birth to several smaller collaborative projects, from fashion shows to financial advice workshops, and we encourage cooperation among individual members.

WNG meetings generally take place twice a month, with one meeting happening at CubeSpace (622 SE Grand Ave.) and the other being hosted in the home of a WNG member.

Cost is $18; we provide dinner and wine/beer. Pre-registration and pre-payment are strongly encouraged; we do limit attendance to 20 women. In an effort to provide the maximum benefit to everyone concerned, we ask for 48 hours' notice if a pre-registered woman needs to cancel; this allows us to fill her slot. Barring emergencies, if you need to cancel on shorter notice than 48 hours, you will still be charged.

Weekly Announcements
In addition to the bi-monthly WNG meetings, we send out weekly announcement emails detailing upcoming events or offers through our members. These emails are sent out to a list of over 300 subscribers. Any notice sent to Eva (eva@cubespacepdx.com) before the end of the business day on Thursday will be included; the emails go out every Monday.

Business Directory
Even if you (or someone you'd like to connect with) can't attend a WNG meeting, you can contact them through the business directory. To add yourself to the business directory, please create an account on the CubeSpace web site. Your account will take a little while to process, and after that you will receive instructions on creating your business directory entry. Members who have attended at least one meeting in the past three months are allowed to display their web site along with a 300-word blurb about their business on the directory. If you have any questions, visit the how-to page, or e-mail beth2@cubespacepdx.com.
